What fun little lamps!  We bought a pair with the blue shades and they are so cute, flanking either side of the TV on our console with a tiny bud vase in front of them.  My son loves to play with the touch feature and so far, they have been turned on and off about 5000 times and work just perfectly.  -- A great little find!  You just have to go out and find a nice bright appliance light bulb for them to get enough light.
